RE: winXP USB key authentication

["Nick Duda" <nduda () VistaPrint com>]

Check out eToken from eAladin, it does all that and more, unfortunately
its not a storage device, rather USB authentication device. I'm not sure
with a regular storage USB drive.

Subject: winXP USB key authentication



Is there a way to use a regular USB storage key to login to a winXP pro
box. I'm just looking to use it on my home system. I would like to be
able to walk up to the system and insert the key into the front USB
port, thus causing windows to log me in, without typing a password. i
would then like to be able to either logout or lock the workstation
simply by removing the key. Is this possible using free utilities?

Thanks
